Fievel is Glauque biography

Fievel Is Glauque primarily consists of multi-instrumentalist Zach Phillips and singer Ma Clément, but on stage they expand to become a massive band of revolving players. Their kaleidoscopic debut album God’s Trashmen Sent To Right The Mess weaves together recordings from roughly 30 musicians in five separate bands over 20 songs blending jazz-fusion, pop, lounge, and soul, but all of it fits together to create a single joyful vision. All of these wild sonic directions are held together by Brussels-based singer Clément, who effortlessly delivers earworm after earworm, regardless of which group of musicians is playing behind her. Drifting between English and French, her elastic delivery is a constant surprise — whether it’s her tumbling wordplay on “Sweet Tooth,” the luxurious funk of “We’re Lost,” or the stunningly warm “Hit Me Now,” which feels like a lost Yo La Tengo classic. God’s Trashmen Sent To Right The Mess is a marvelous debut, with countless thrilling musical flights of fancy, and a rock-solid partnership at its core.
